Questions on the secondary are items they don't feel were covered adequately on the first application and/or things they place heavy emphasis on.

Everything about the ASDOH secondary is specific to volunteering. AADSAS gives you room to make a list of volunteering with a measly 175 characters to explain. Their secondary wants a better breakdown with room to explain and an essay on top of it explaining why you did that volunteering. For a school that emphasizes community involvement, the AADSAS application doesn't say much.

yup, I think so too. on UCLA's website, it says that they don't even begin reviewing until October so their secondary is probably sent out a little later than just now.
at least, that's what I'm hoping

If you think Dental School secondaries are miserable..........just be glad you aren't applying to Medical School. They make Dental School secondaries look like a joke.

Lucky me then

I'm in a better mood today. And it is not as easy as a copy paste as someone suggested above. ANswers have to be well though...otherwise why bother applying if you are going to do things in a mediocre way?
